[Q] Huawei U8800 Pro Hard Brick

Hello, Guys, Its my first post here, so i allready sorry for my bad English.
I have a big problem with my phone, the this is that when i try to turn it on huawei logo appears and after ~5 seconds it dissapears and nothing happens, phone just turns off. I also cant get acces to CMW. Al i can do is to go to pink screen mode. I also tyed to put dload folder with updates to sdhc card, but when i am trying to load i with 3 buttons combination (VOL +- + power on button), pink screen appears... What should i do in this situation? Maybe anyone had faced this problem, and how have you solved it?
Again sorry for my poor English , and thanks for your help

VOL + and power on button

I tryed that. It doesnt help. Huawei logo apears and after few seconds dissapears...

Tried putting out battery and start via USB?
Sent from my U8800

Yes. No effect

I had the same expirience, when I flashed u8800 PRO "dload" on my u8800. I took it to the warranty, acted like I'm dumb and they replaced the motherboard.
If it does not respond by putting "dload" folder on the sdcard and pressing all the (three) buttons, I am deeply sorry for your loss, if you dont have it under warranty.

If you have tried this more then 2 times, your recovery file is gone and your system files corrupted.And there isn't enough space for new rom.
I don't know it is working or not, but xmsnx tried it on his u8800 (not pro) and managed backing up the phone.

Ok here's what I did
Download http://mediafire.com/?1hbk6n46hgamyt6
Unzip it, and find UPDATE.APP
Put UPDATE.APP in a dload folder and upload to empty sdcard.
Put sdcard in phone, and hold vol+/- and power and flash it.
After phone has restarted pull battery.
Download http://www.mediafire.com/?6hrfz36b8e2vw87
Unzip and copy the dload folder to empty sdcard.
Hold vol+/- and power and flash it.
After it fails near the end or if it restarts then pull battery.
Download a rooted boot.img and a clockworkmod recovery.img (got both mine from links at modaco)
Attach phone to PC in pink screen mode and delete the boot.img and recover.img files.
Upload the downloaded root.img and recovery.img to image folder in phone.
Download any custom rom from XDA, I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1475687 and upload it to sdcard
Pull battery.
Hold vol+ and power and go into clockworkmod, wipe everything and flash the custom rom!!
Good luck!

Moved To Q&A​
Please post all questions in the Q&A section​

Maybe you should try again using a sd card with the dload folder without the battery?
I also had the same problem and almost lost all hope, but in the 10th time I tried it worked! Don't know why, just came back from the dead.
PS: I am looking for a broken ideos to replace the back casing. If you dont succeed, maybe you could pm me to buy your phone

Grand Prime stuck on Odin Mode when I flashed TWRP

So I rooted my new Samsung galaxy Grand Prime (SM-G530A AT&T Variant) using Kingoroot.apk. Everything worked perfectly, then I used a Kingoroot to Supersu converter and it worked like a charm too. The problem is that I flashed the wrong TWRP recovery using flashify and now its stuck on Odin mode. I already tried plugging it onto my computer, but it doesn't detect it, therefore odin or Samsung Kies won't connect to it. I have tried different cables and installing drivers but no success. Can anyone help me???? I would really appreciate it
Here is the screen my phone is currently stuck at:

Please help

So, I have finally managed to find a solution.
what you need to do is , turn off the phone and then , press Power + Home + Volume Down and when the phone
vibrates then immediately press the volume up with power and Home.
after that you will be in a caution screen asking for either to press volume Up to start downloading and volume down to reboot the phone.
Then press volume up button , once you will do this you will again see the odin screen but this time instead of the samsung logo you will see downloading, please dont turn off the target screen will see.
What you need to do now is download odin 3.10.7 from their official website and install it on PC.
After that download twrp
go to twrp official website and search for phone and download the file
No. once download is finished, open odin in pc and select the file in "AP" and plug the phone to PC and click start, it will then complete and your will automatically start.

google account problem

hy. i have a big problem. i just bought a p9 lite and i couldn.t sing in with google account. On browser it works but when i press add new account(settings) at google nothing happends. at e-mail, exchange it works but not at google option. it doesn.t work at youtube, magazin play, google + etc also. after 3 hours of google.ing the problem is still there. anything else works fine. if you have any ideea i will try it. thanks.

You just bought the phone and did not root/modded right? You should try to do a factory​ reset, and if it does not work the Google Apps must be damaged. To fix it you have to download the original firmware and update with the dload mode:
-Extract the firmware from the zip (you can find download in the forum)
-Put the file UPADATE.APP in a folder named dload
-Copy the dload folder that contains the firmware to a micro SD and put it in your phone
-Make sure to have enough battery
-Open the dialer and type *#*#2846579#*#*
-Click on ProjectMenu -> Software Upgrade -> SDCard Upgrade
This should install the firmware to your phone.
If it does not work do in this way:
-With the dload folder in the SD card as before, shut down the phone
-While powered off, press Volume -, Volume + and power button all together and it will start the installation

Hard Bricked P10 Plz HELP!!!!

VKY-AL00C00 P10, Unable to boot after a magisk 14 update, any long button press combination result in a red led flash and any long power button press result in a vibration and red led flash. Cannot boot into anything!!! Plz help!!!!!!

I have tried the HWOTA method but fastboot is impossible to access, the dload method doesnt seem to work either since there is no reaction from the vol up +down +power combo.

It was on 70 percent when i charged it first before the magisk update and i have been trying to charge the phone for a while now so i dont think so, but i am not certain as flashing tend to use a lot of battery.

I also flashed several imgs extracted from the official huawei update package beforehand and installed the magisk update in TWRP.

some solution
:crying:some solution my huawei p10 plus is dead

Here's my final solution... because the partitioning was destroyed.. i took it back to huawei customer service and because my phone was under warranty, and the fact that they could not verify if the bootloader was unlocked 'since the bootloader software no longer exist on the device' they repaired it under warranty with a free motherboard replacement...

Try the dload method if the keystroke (power button plus volume + and -)works

I have same problem,do u resolve this?

Nelix said:

I could not solve

Just to be clear, none of you actually have the same problem as I did....
So in trying to fix magisk I accidentally flashed a corrupted boot.img and messed up erecovery, which will make it impossible to interact with the phone in any way except to open it up physically. As Partitioning is broken, therefore I took it to huawei repair in China, who did a motherboard for free before asking what roms I used (seriously).
If I was in one of your situations where erecovery is not broken (the thing that's tells u to download and recovery when volume up and power is pressed) in the recovery2 partition on nougat. It would be a matter of simply pressing download and fixing the problem automatically.
Also to be clear my p10 plus has been through hell as I flashed it 20 times that week due to safety net problems so it could have also been that (according to the technician) I simply fried the motherboard.
If this is not what you did or encounter then I repeat YOU ARE NOT HARD BRICKED! and there is a factory provided method for fixing your problems without resorting to flashing.

First: if your bootloader is unlocked, there will be a bootscreen telling you to press vol up to enter erecovery. If you can do that then problem solved, use the download function to repair your phone (it will lock your bootloader showing that I was never unlocked, as well as format data and all other partitions, so your will lose twrp or any custom recovery)
Btw: in oreo the recovery for huawei is located at ramdisk_recovey partition, and the erecovery partition can no longer be written to which in essence makes the china edition of these phones unbrickble as long as u didnt fry anything.
If erecovery doesn't work for you, try routing your wifi through a vpn that changes your ip to China, that will guarantee it to works as well as faster download(hicloud servers are in China).
Idk about the European and international variants but I have done this more the 40 times on my mate 9 pro and p10 plus, the only time I corrupted anything was by flashing images, SO ONLY DO FLASHING AS A LAST Resort.

How to unlock bootloader if phone won't start up.

My phone is bricked and I was thinking about flashing it via adb fastboot, but I cant since my bootloader is locked, I tried to get the code but it is asking me for info which I can only get with phone turned on, is there anything I can do?
I got IMEI only, but I also need Product Model, Product Serial number, Product ID. (I can access those only in settings and in dial pad if I am not wrong).

See the back of phone, what type of model is? VNS-???

i have mate 10 lite same problem,bootloader is locked so can i use dload method,and where to get the stock firmware

I have executed these commands and after from this moment, the screen of my device is black and which key or combinations of keys I press nothing works..
Code:
fastboot flash preloader preloader_begonia.bin
fastboot flash lk lk.img
fastboot flash lk2 lk.img
Disconnected the cable, connected the cable, holding the keys for a longer period, holding them for a short period. Only power key, only volume up/down, combining power with volume. Nothing works. When connecting it to the computer, I do see device manager constantly refreshing. But both fastboot and adb are not finding any devices.
When holding the power button for more then 10 seconds, I do feel a small vibe but thats all. Nothing further happens, also not when connecting it to the PC or disconnecting it from the PC.
Anyone any idea what I could to to fix this?
